ATFBETIBM Chapter 473

“You’re a kind person, Mr. Xin,” Zhou Hai removed his golden-rimmed glasses, “You have richer emotions and compassion than ordinary people, but being too kind often leads to adverse effects. I don’t want to subject you to a second special treatment.”

The time on the timer was nearing its end, and as the time gradually shortened to “00:00:00”, the alarm went off, and Zhou Hai skillfully pressed the timer.

“The counseling session is over, and the rest time doesn’t count as therapy. Dear Xin, let’s just chat casually about some topics friends would discuss,” Zhou Hai poured a cup of coffee for Bai Lixin. “You’ve spent more than twenty days with this current robot, Xiao Yi even though it is different from the type of robot you used to use. To be honest, I didn’t expect you to spend such a long time with it. I thought you would do as before, returning the robot for scrapping within three days.”

“It seems you’re quite satisfied with Xiao Yi?”

Bai Lixin had only been in this world for two days, how could he know if the original person liked Xiao Yi or not.

He replied to Zhou Hai’s conversation, “I’m quite satisfied.”

Zhou Hai smiled, “Well then, I’m relieved. Now, how do you feel when you think about the S-001 model robot?”

Bai Lixin really wanted to say he didn’t even know what the S-001 model robot was, “I don’t feel anything. It should be the same as Xiao Yi, just a type of robot, right?”

A barely noticeable look of relief finally appeared in Zhou Hai’s eyes. “In the process of evolution, sex is closely related to reproduction. When sex cannot be properly guided, it often leads to abnormal emotions, such as paraphilia.”

“This phenomenon is called ‘sexual perversion’ in psychology. Patients will seek satisfaction for their sexual desires through non-living objects.”

“You previously exhibited this with the S-001.”

“Treating this kind of abnormal affection is complex, it’s simple to explain, yet difficult to execute.”

“I thought you were restraining yourself just now, but from your recent response, your symptoms of ‘sexual perversion’ have completely recovered. Congratulations, Mr. Xin.”

“Our therapy session today is completely finished.”

Bai Lixin: “???”

‘Who?

Who are you calling a pervert?’

‘Who has paraphilia?

Who’s abnormal?’

‘Are you polite?’

So, the character he played was in a relationship with a robot before?

In the live broadcast room:

[Hahahaha, I’m sorry, but… hahahaha.]

[Merit -1, Merit -1, Merit -10000, Negative merit.]

[There’s a big question mark in God Xin’s beautiful eyes: WTF!]

[In just one morning, not only did God Xin become the lucky 438, he also became the spokesperson for sexual perversion and paraphilia.]

[Given the situation, if God Xin doesn’t confirm the ‘perversion’ at this point, wouldn’t he be carrying an undeserved burden? Please, God Xin, show us the paraphilia. So, will the big boss this time be a robot? 24/7 Filial Robot Boyfriend vs. Perverted Master. What’s that noise? Oh, it’s just my XP barking.]

[Ahem, well, um. About that. With robots, do they have that function?]

[Foolish humans, not only do they have it, but it’s also bigger, faster, and stronger, okay? In this highly technologically advanced copy, robots may be able to mimic human forms, maybe even be completely identical to humans. You couldn’t tell the difference just by appearance.]

[Wow, I’m already excited.]

————————–

Zhou Hai picked up his notebook and wrote on it, “Xin, your twenty-fifth birthday is in five days. Today, I confirm that your abnormal love syndrome has been corrected, so you can go to the Love Zone to register your information in time.”

He closed the notebook, glanced at Bai Lixin through his glasses, and asked, “Xin, do you have any other questions?”

Bai Lixin: “I’d like to see my previous treatment records.”

Zhou Hai’s pen paused for a second, then continued writing on the notebook. “Okay, wait until I finish this final conclusion.”

He quickly wrote down the last sentence on the notebook, then handed it to Bai Lixin, “I have another patient next door, you can leave the notebook on my desk after you’ve finished reading.”

Psychologist Zhou Hai left the room, leaving Bai Lixin alone in the spacious and minimalist therapy room.

The notebook was about two fingers thick, with the number 4956 written on the simple blue cover, and a label attached to the side.

Bai Lixin flipped open the first page, which introduced “himself”.

[Name: Mr. Xin]

[Age: 24 years old]

[Birthday: February 20th]

[Gender: Male]

[Height: 183 cm]

[Occupation: Order Zone Operator]

[Initial Psychological Health Assessment: D (Poor)]

[Psychological Issues: Developed an abnormal love for robots, showed violent tendencies, mental instability, anxiety, and suspicion.]

[Preliminary Opinion after Psychological Consultation: Provide psychological counseling to correct the patient’s abnormal love.]

Bai Lixin casually flipped through the pages, which contained many records of therapy sessions, but they were all text-based, with no photos.

He turned to the last page, where the ink had not completely dried yet. On the back of the last page was a small spot of black ink. Bai Lixin stared at the ink, and for a moment, it seemed to jump.

He blinked and when he looked again, the ink spot was lying quietly on the paper, with no signs of movement.

Bai Lixin rubbed his eyes and looked at the page Zhou Hai had just written on.

[108th Psychological Session.]

[Session Method: Dialogue, Hypnosis, Guidance, Communication, Ink Experiment.]

[Treatment Content:]

[1. Patient Mr. Xin showed good communication skills during the conversation, with a healthy mental state and no signs of violence.]

[2. After hypnosis, Mr. Xin could enter a state of sleep smoothly and subjectively accept guidance.]

[3. During the ink experiment, Mr. Xin showed excellent anti-interrogation abilities and outstanding logical thinking skills.]

[4. Proper intervention for psychological disorders was conducted. When the patient, Mr. Xin, was asked about S-001 robot, he displayed an indifferent instinctual reaction. Previously, Mr. Xin had exhibited various complex emotions such as “infatuation,” “sadness,” “despair,” “guilt,” and “apology” towards the S-001 robot. After 108 treatment sessions, Mr. Xin has displayed a psychological emotion of “indifference” for the first time. This is a positive development, indicating significant improvement in Mr. Xin’s abnormal affection towards the S-001 robot.]

[Conclusion: The results of this treatment were very successful. In summary, Mr. Xin can now be defined as a healthy human being, eligible to experience genuine love.]

Bai Lixin’s gaze fell on the words “infatuation,” “sadness,” “despair,” “guilt,” and “apology.”

This was the original person’s attitude towards the robot. Did the original person do something to the S-001 robot? Why were there such complex and rich emotions, and why were these emotional descriptions inclined towards the wrong side?

Could his hidden identity be related to the S-001 robot?

Bai Lixin flipped through the notebook again, turning to the very first therapy session.

[First Therapy Session Record]

[Patient: Mr. Xin]

[Mental State: D (Very Poor)]

[Anomaly: Engaged in harmful behavior.]

[Attitude: The patient was extremely averse to psychological treatment, and during resistance, exhibited violent tendencies.]

[Treatment Methods: Sedative injection, hypnosis, calming, guidance.]

[Initially administered a sedative injection, followed by hypnosis guidance once the patient’s mental state stabilized.]

[Analysis of the patient’s paraphilic affection for the robot:]

[According to the patient’s subconscious description, the S-001 robot, as a family companion robot, displayed an extremely affectionate attitude towards the patient. The patient developed a dependence on S-001’s behavior, and over time, the dependence increased and gradually transformed the dependence on S-001 into abnormal infatuation.]

[Although AI robots are simulated humanoids, they are theoretically the result of kernel computation and do not possess human-specific emotions; they merely present behaviors through secondary processing. AI robots do not have emotions, yet the patient is convinced of the mutual affection between himself and the S-001 robot.]

[This abnormal affection lasted for six months until it was discovered due to the patient’s frequent problems at work and psychological testing.]

[The S-001 robot was judged as defective due to “causing harm to the owner” and “uncertain factors,” and after confirmation, was scraped, with data erased and chips melted.]

[After the destruction of S-001, the patient experienced major psychological issues, believing it was his fault for not protecting S-001, his mistake that led to the exposure of S-001’s defective state, and his actions that caused S-001’s demise.]

[During hypnosis, he repeatedly uttered the phrase “I killed S-001.”]

[Summary: 1. The patient exhibited a blurred concept of robots. He could not distinguish between real humans and robots assembled by systems, believing robots to be living beings. 2. The patient developed emotions towards robots higher than those towards humans.]

[The patient’s condition is severe and will require continuous monitoring and treatment in the future.]

[Treatment Plan: 1. Find alternative robots, using the most basic metal robots to correct and awaken the patient’s original concept of robots. 2. Medication treatment. 3. Therapy sessions. Sessions occur every ten days, with adjustments made if there are changes in the situation.]

[Sister System, what does the S-001 robot look like?]Bai Lixin called out to the escape system in his mind.

The electrical sound in his mind responded with a crackle, and the escape system replied,[Please wait a moment, Master Bai Lixin, I will look for it for you.]

A few seconds later, the voice of the escape system echoed in his mind again,[The S-001 robot does not refer to a specific robot, but rather a model. Robots range from low-end to high-end, with serial numbers ranging from A to S, with S being the highest level of AI robot and the most realistic in terms of simulation. For example that robot Xiao Yi, its model series belongs to the F series.]

[S-series robots are indistinguishable from ordinary humans in appearance, and may even resemble humans more than humans themselves.]
